What most visitors do not realize is that some of the best food near SeaWorld is not on International Drive at all. The side streets off I-Drive are home to independent restaurants that serve real, made-from-scratch meals at fair prices. These are the places locals eat.
Ciao Italia Ristorante is one of those places. Tucked on Westwood Boulevard 3 minutes from SeaWorld SeaWorld, it has been run by the Navarra family since 1991. The menu is classic Italian: homemade pasta, fresh seafood, veal, lamb chops, and a wine list that covers every region of Italy.

Couples enjoy the quieter dining room and the chance to share a bottle of wine after a busy day. It is the kind of restaurant that turns a theme park vacation into something a little more special.
